"The main objective of the Let'S Move project was to promote sustainable, healthy and safe mobility in primary schools participating in the project. Likewise, other objectives pursued by the project were to change the perception of the school community about transport in the city, promoting changes in daily transportation habits to schools, improving the quality of life of students, through improvement of their health, safety and social relations, encourage the use of foreign languages and the use of ICT in schools through the eTwinning platform and integrate project activities in the different subjects of the curriculum.In the Let'S Move project, initially 15 schools participated, with a total of 6,463 students from Spain, France, Poland and Croatia. As a result of the withdrawal of the French partner by judicial liquidation in May 2017, three French schools withdrew from the project, leaving only one French school in the last year of the project. Thus, the project was completed with the participation of 12 educational centers and 5,127 students. If we take into account the entire educational community (students, teachers, fathers and mothers) and the town halls (political authorities, municipal technicians and police) the project has involved more than 15,000 peopleIn this way we can conclude that the benefits and impacts achieved during the project on the participants and the organizations involved have been:-Increase of sustainable trips to school by around 15% by changing travel by car to trips on foot and by bicycle.
